A View to Zvičina hill (dated from the midlle of thel last century)
When we compare both snaps we see different view. On the left you can see open landscape with a few old houses, in the contrary there are new houses new roads, only birches there are. We can say that the town which is spreading in a tiny valley , catching land. People want to own their houses in nature. So our land is disappear step by step . Only the hill and the forest at the back are still there. What shall we do in the future? We have to decide if we will build family houses or blocks of flats and keep the landscape.
